We also have the tools to build your press brake. With all the tools available, our factory-trained Wilson and Wila experts are certified.
Our press brakes can streamline your workflow, improve production speeds, reduce energy consumption, and lower operating costs. Our presses have capacities ranging from 40-to 2,000-ton and can be equipped with between 3 and 11 different axes. They also include tool layout, collision checks, back gauge editing, and DiamondSoft(r), software with auto-tooling.
Our press brake machines have important advantages over other models, thanks to Standard Industrial's reputation of durability and repeatability.
It's finally possible to find a high-quality, durable press brake solution that is both simple to use, and easy to love.
The BH Series "hybrid press brakes" prove that hybrid press brakes do not always work the same. These third-generation machines use their dual-drive design to offer the best of both electric and hydraulic bending: high productivity, precision movement, reliability, and superior savings - even when compared with other hydraulic, electric pulley, and hybrid press brakes.
It is said that the "little guys" sometimes punch higher than their weight classes. Our small, 4-foot press brake is an example of this. The compact bender includes a CNC-controlled X-axis back gauge, tangs capable of accepting euro or american tooling, an LED rear working light and two front sheet supports that slide with a linear rail. There is also a dual palm/foot station equipped with a selector switch. This small, powerful and precise press brake packs a punch.
Imagine Gigantically large and intelligent press brakes that can handle a wide range of metal materials and tonnages. Our mega mega press brakes are made with advanced engineered technology box construction frames that give our mega brakes the strongest brake machine body. Our large high-tonnage mega press brakes incorporate our box construction frame design. We have received approval from all of our customers. The high-tonnage press brake is designed to reduce the handling of large pieces of work before, during, and after bending and to respect the next step.
Think Gigantically LARGE and highly intelligent press brakes with an unlimited range of tonnages, bending lengths, and loading/unloading metal material handling systems. All of our high tonnage mega press brakes utilize advanced engineered technology “box construction” frame design that gives our mega brakes the most stable brake machine body in the world. The unparalleled stability and rigidity of our large high tonnage press brakes incorporating our box construction frame design is approved by our references all around the world. Our high tonnage press brake also focuses to minimize the handling of large work pieces before, during and after the bending operation and respects the next process.
Gulf States Saw & Machine. Co. stocks a variety hydraulic press brake models to fit the unique needs and requirements of the many businesses that we serve across the country. Our press brakes have sizes from 22 to 44 tons and beds from 4 to 13 inches with manual or CNC controls. We can accept custom orders and length requests for special lengths. All of our presses brakes come standard with safety devices. The rear safety cage disables the machine when the door is opened. This makes it easy to maintain and prevents accidents. All electrical parts are industry-standard and readily available at our Memphis, TN warehouse. To learn more about each model, download the pdf.
This dual-drive hybrid makes short work of any project with long-term, high-speed, energy-efficient operation.
Mechanical press brakes operate via a motor inside the device. This motor spins a large flywheel at high speeds. The machine operator controls the flywheel through a clutch, which then sets the rest of the parts into motion to bend the metal. The mechanical press brake is much more straightforward, especially regarding its electronics, making maintenance and operation easy. They can also handle tonnages two to three times higher than their inherent rating, due to the nature of the mechanisms. The primary disadvantage of using mechanical press brakes is that the ram inside the machine must complete a full cycle when engaged and cannot be reversed. This creates some safety concerns if the operator makes a mistake and sets some limitations on the machine. One possible hazard is the potential for the press brake to become locked if the ram travels too far.
Then you will need to determine the particular characteristics to be taken into account when calculating the part bend. This includes, for example:
Our Single Cylinder and Dual Cylinder Hydraulic Press Brakes are designed using the CNC technology system-the Computerized Numeric Control which is the latest technological advancement in Press Brake designs and utilizes a blast system that removes rust from the work-piece surface. Because it is run on Servo Electric systems, our range of advanced dual bending machines function purely electrically. They require no form of hydraulic oiling and energy consumption is minimal.
The press brake's press force is known as the tonnage. It is used to determine the maximum pressure that can applied during the bending process.
Braking techniques: Controlled braking. You can slow down or maintain a slower speed by applying steady pressure to the brake pedal. ... Threshold brake. You can use brakes to increase your car's grip and control on the road surface by shifting weight to the front wheels. Cover brakes.
The press brake is, in reality, one of the most difficult machines to master in the trade. Every sheet metal operation needs to bend.
Hydraulic brake failures are most common due to either loss of hydraulic pressure, or brake fade on steep hills.
Hydraulic brakes use brake fluid within sealed tubing between the lever and caliper. This fluid is usually either DOT fluid, or mineral oil/fluid. Both fluids can cause contamination over time so it is important to flush the system and have fluid changed periodically.
Your car could stop if you hit the brakes and don't clutch to stop it. This is because your engine revs are collapsing. In an emergency, you will need to start your car again. This can be tedious and time-consuming.
